Five-Axis Machine for Contouring Applications
SNK America says its CMV-100 is a five-axis machine with a column-feed design and construction that eliminates table overhang, promoting prolonged machining accuracy for contoured 3D work for the die/mold and aerospace industries.
SNK America says its CMV-100 is a five-axis machine with a column-feed design and construction that eliminates table overhang, promoting prolonged machining accuracy for contoured 3D work for the die/mold and aerospace industries. In addition, the machine’s wide A-axis tilting spindle head, ranging from +30 degrees to -120 degrees, enables undercuts in a single setup.
The 40/30 hp spindle motor delivers high-power and high-speed cutting capability, with a maximum torque rating of 442 foot-pounds (600 Nm) continuous and spindle speed ranging from 40 to 8,000 rpm. The company says this enables the machine to be well-suited for a variety of machining applications.
The CMV-100 features a 39.3" × 39.3" table with a maximum load capacity of 3,300 lbs, and X-, Y- and Z-axis travels are 59" × 52.3" × 51.1". The machine also features Rotary Table Dynamic Fixture Compensation which automatically compensates for work origin moves due to C-axis rotation of the rotary table.
Standard features include an automatic pallet changer (two pallets); 80-tool automatic tool changer system (with 50- and 312-tool options); tool axis manual movement function; scale feedback; workpiece probe; automatic tool length and diameter measuring function with broken tool detection slideway covers; spindle speed and load display meters; cycle completion total shutoff function; through-spindle coolant; splashguard; chip conveyor; and FANUC 31i-B5 CNC. Other optional features include a mist coolant device and mist collector.
The CMV series of five-axis machining centers includes the larger CMV-150 with X-, Y- and Z-axis travels of 78.7", 60.2" and 66.9". The company also offers the CMV-100T, which incorporates turning and full five-axis machining capabilities.
